Dear Mr. Monroe:
In accordance with your application received May 3, 2006, we are forwarding herewith Permit No.
WQ0029883 dated May 9, 2006, to the Town of Aberdeen for the construction and operation of the
subject wastewater collection system extension. The modification includes the construction and operation
of an additional 467 linear feet of 15-inch gravity sewer.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded, shall void Permit No.

therein. This cover letter shall be considered a part of this permit and is therefore incorporated therein by
reference.
Please pay particular attention to Permit Condition 3, which requires the wastewater
collection facilities be properly operated and maintained in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0227 or
any individual system -wide collection system permit issued to the Permittee.
Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that
does not meet 15A NCAC 2H .0200; the Division of Water Quality's (Division) Gravity Sewer
Minimum Design Criteria adopted February 12, 1996 as applicable; and the Division's Minimum
Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of Pump Stations and Force Mains adopted June 1,

In accordance with provisions of Article 21 of Chapter 143, General Statutes of North Carolina as
amended, and other applicable Laws, Rules, and Regulations, permission is hereby granted to the Town of
Aberdeen, for construction and operation of 467 linear feet of 15 inch gravity sewer; to serve as part of the
Legacy Offsite Trunk Sewer project, and no additional discharge of collected domestic wastewater into the
Moore County Wastewater Treatment Plant, pursuant to the application received May 3, 2006, and in
conformity with 15A NCAC 2H .0200; the Division's Gravity Sewer Minimum Design Criteria adopted
February 12, 1996 as applicable; the Division's Minimum Design Criteria for the Fast -Track Permitting of
Pump Stations and Force Mains adopted June 1, 2000 as applicable; and other supporting data subsequently
filed and approved by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and considered as part of this
permit, and
the continued operation of approximately 913 linear feet of 18-inch gravity sewer, and 5,074 linear feet of
15-inch gravity sewer, to serve as part of the Legacy Offsite Trunk Sewer project, and no additional
discharge of collected domestic wastewater into the Moore County Wastewater Treatment Plant, pursuant to
the application received February 24, 2006.
The sewage and wastewater collected by this system shall be treated in the Moore County
Wastewater Treatment Plant (NC0037508) prior to being discharged into the receiving stream.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right
to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within 30 days following receipt of this permit. This

Enclosed with this cover letter is also a copy of 15A NCAC 2H .0223, which outlines the denial
for sewer line extension permits to wastewater treatment facilities who exceed 80 and/or 90 percent of
their permitted hydraulic capacity and have not submitted an approvable engineering evaluation
(80%) or obtain permits for plant expansion (90%). This project's projected flow would put the
treatment plants hydraulic capacity at 84%.
If you need additional information concerning this matter, please contact Trent Allen at (910) 486-
1541, extension 722.
Sincerely,
for Alan W. Klimek, P.E.

15A NCAC 0211.0223 DEMONSTRATION OF FUTURE WASTEWATER TREATMENT CAPACITIES
In order to insure that treatment systems do not exceed their hydraulic treatment capacities, no permits for sewer line
extensions will be issued to wastewater treatment systems owned or operated by municipalities, counties, sanitary districts or
public utilities after January 1, 1994 unless they meet the following requirements:
(1) Prior to exceeding 80 percent of the wastewater treatment system's permitted hydraulic capacity (based on
the average flow of calendar year 1993 or any subsequent calendar year), the permittee must submit an
approvable engineering evaluation of their future wastewater treatment needs. This evaluation must outline
specific plans for meeting future wastewater treatment needs by either expansion of the existing system,
elimination or reduction of extraneous flows, or water conservation and must include the source(s) of
funding for the improvements. If expansion is not proposed or is proposed for a later date, a detailed
justification must be made and approved by the Director based on past growth records and future growth
projections and, as appropriate, shall include conservation plans or other specific measures to achieve
waste flow reductions.
(2) Prior to exceeding 90 percent of the wastewater treatment systems permitted hydraulic capacity, (based on
the average flow of calendar year 1993 or any subsequent calendar year), the permittee must obtain all
permits needed for the expansion of the wastewater treatment system and, if construction is needed, submit
approvable final plans and specifications for expansion including a construction schedule. If expansion is
not proposed or is proposed for a later date, a detailed justification must be made and approved by the
Director based on past growth records and future growth projections and, as appropriate, shall include
conservation plans or other specific measures to achieve waste flow reductions.
(3) The Director may on a case by case basis, allow permits to be issued to facilities that are exceeding the 80
percent or 90 percent loading rates if the additional flow is not projected to result in the facility exceeding
its permitted hydraulic capacity, the facility is it) compliance with all other permit limitations and
requirements and it is demonstrated to his satisfaction that adequate progress is being made in developing
the needed engineering evaluations or plans and specifications.
